hey guys I have a zxr250c its pouring fuel out from the carby and going out the air filer hole at the bottom does anyone know what may cause this
hey Chris Where is the fuel coming out of ? do you mean in the air intake that feeds the airbox ? Chris
Hmm, please do NOT start it, if there is fuel in your air box then its a fire risk and the air filter could ignite. This is really weird as the airbox is attached to the carbs but by my reckoning it cant flow back into the airbox as the trumpets are higher than the base of the airbox, plus there are are gaps between the trumpets and the airbox. I can only think its a leaking petcock or fuel line leaking on the airbox which is allowing fuel down there. Do your airbox still have the seal on the lip where the top and bottom join ? Sorry I cant be more help, I have just sat an airbox on a set of carbies and I cant fathom how fuel can get into the airbox
Is it coming out of one carby or all of them? Is it alot or just a little? Does it stop with the petcock off?
Hey Chris Could you provide a photo, I'm struggling big time with this one. Reasoning, gravity would not allow fuel to flow from the trumpets. Also are all fuel lines connected correctly? Something doesn't gel.
Yea Im with u on that Phil ..... and evidential photos would be good and also I was thinking too it may be coming from somewhere else and ending up in the airbox somehow .... liquids flow in strange ways ..... !
Hey Chris Spoke to my mechanic today, mentioned your carb issue and that I couldn't understand what was going on. He said to check needle and seat on your carbs, thought I'd pass that on.
